The strong young man at the construction site was bragging that he could outdo anyone in a feat of strength. He made a special case of making fun of one of the older workmen. After several minutes, the older worker had had enough. "Why don't you put your money where your mouth is," he said. "I will bet a week's wages that I can haul something in a wheelbarrow over to that outbuilding that you won't be able to wheel back." "You're on, old man," the braggart replied. "Let's see what you got." The old man reached out and grabbed the wheelbarrow by the handles. Then, nodding to the young man, he said, "all right, get in."

I'll never forget one of the old buggers at work when I was young saying to a new smartmouth, 'So you know a bit do ya? You know fuck all!' Then silence followed by laughter.

Had a similar exp at a pub tears ago,a wanker kept saying bet you a jug that I can scull a jug faster than you can scull a handle,mate said ok,wanker said you buy the beers,they both went too the bar,the wanker got another jug.
Came back and mate was all keen,the wanker said the rules are 1)I can't touch your drink or you my jug.2)I will warm up drinking this jug first.So we waited till he had finished his jug (15 mins),then the guy placed his empty jug over my mates handle,took another 15 mins and finished the jug.Mate had to buy 6 jugs which he was about to.

But wait there's more I said double or nothing,wanker said ok.I said bet you can't step over this jug and proceeded to do so with jug in middle of floor.Your on said the wanker,but lets make it for $25 (hourly rate was about $3.00 for me apprentice).Said put it on the bar which he did.Rules were no touching the jug,yep he said,a few were pissing themselves as I had done this before,I placed the jug in the corner of the bar against the walls.He couldn't step over it,man was he pissed off big time,said double or quits on pool table,bet him again from being 4 balls down and him on black,the wanker then went to the bog and jumped out the window prick.He was staying at the pub the week previous,and was heading home that night.
Oh he grabbed the dough from bar when we started playing pool.
